I have to check if there is something for Alarm that I've not handled in
my virtual player, but I think the answer is yes for both. Basically,
you create a set of new players that are "virtual" but have all the
attributes of a real player.

Every virtual player has a list of real players as members and when
something happen on that virtual player, the group is assembled on the
fly. For your question 2-, you would need to play to a new "virtual
player" that assembles the players you want. 

I do that quite often. When I'm going home, I like to play podcast using
some low quality ceiling speakers (powered by a PiCore) together with 2
booms to cover the whole house. I've created a virtual players made of
this Picore and the 2 booms. One of that boom with a duet connected to
good speakers is member of another virtual player "master bedroom"
(names talks for itself). 

Once I settle down to my bedroom, I use that virtual player to play to.
No need to change groups anymore, my music only plays on the boom and
the duet in my bedroom, the ceiling speakers and the other boom stay
quiete and I don't have to change groups
